The blackest of our days will pale into insignificance if we ever stoop so low as to require JUDAS to return. Detest everything he stands for - suspect the majority feel the same way.

You need to move on buddy, Cookey was young & made mistakes as we all have, RL is a way of life to some folk but it's just a job to the players, if you actually got to know stretch you would see this, & he has one hell of a rugby brain which would only help our club, but Pryce will be good for our future players to learn from as he achieved a lot more then Cookey & played in better & bigger games, & those experiences are pryceless! Pardon the pun.

I hated him at first tbh but Life's to short to hold grudges , he didn't kill anyone so I would have no problem if he returned if was good for the club

Re: rumours on twitter : Wed Jul 16, 2014 9:31 pm  

some would still see us under peform on and off the pitch, if paul cooke came back and made the team/club improve thats all that matters!

I'd have his head back, mounted on a spike and paraded round the pitch for next years 5000 crowd to hurl pieces of silver at

Is that the best 5000 supporters or fans in their Aussie shirts?

Cooke fell out with the regime that we all subsequently had no time for and were glad to see the back of. His actions were probably immature and badly affected the club especially the fans. They didn't do him much good either tbf. Maybe the man management skills that we're all so critical of iro Radford would have prevented the situation arising had the club's management had any at the time? Maybe he learned a lesson that he's incorporated into the way he now operates?

To be fair we had Radford back so why not Cooke. They're both what they are And lets not forget the dizzy heights they attained together at East Hull.
If they could replicate that then we would be a wow in the top half of the conference

Radders was sold because we were in financial ruins. needed the cash asap. cooke different story. although if he came back and worked with the backs I'd be more then happy with that. he was a top ball handler before he left us, and has done wonders for Donny.

Radford wasnt sold he was all set to sign a new contract until Bradford offered him one.The one thing I cant forgive Peter Sharp was bringing him back here in 2006.

Fair enough it's an opinion, but surely you can't disagree that he's nothing but average?

I thought he did a decent job for us when he was on loan. Just to clarify as well, I wasn't suggesting he be bought to necessarily be a starting player. ATEOTD we don't need a starting winger as we have Lineham and Talanoa along with Lancaster. My thinking is that if we are looking to bring another winger in that it is likely to be for cover purposes and Foster would be a better (and cheaper) option than a NRL/SOO winger.
